ABSTRACT

The complexity and size of the integrated command and control system make it extremely difficult for acquisition decision-makers to obtain an omniscient view of the whole system. This view is necessary for examining alternative design options.

This limited perspective deters the development community’s understanding of how a proposed "improvement" will integrate, augment and/or supplement fielded capabilities. Thus, designs are developed which may not satisfy user requirements. When expectations are not satisfied, the communities are balkanized into groups that do not collaborate to field effective C2 capabilities.

A new "visualization" process is described for evaluating "improvements to command and control system".
